I think he's still a relatively young kicker, ... It's good to have the confidence to know he can make that kind of kick.
I wasn't as excited about the game after watching film as I was right after the game, ... they'll see things weren't as good as everybody is writing right now.
If that hamstring didn't set him back, who knows where he would be,
Our guys did a great job of doing what we had to do to win. It certainly wasn't a very beautiful victory, but to me it is.
It was just a great field position game, a great defensive battle. We had to stay patient, as much as we hated it, and let our special teams do their job -- then knock it in when we needed to.
If he really wanted the hype, he would've waited till the last day to decide what to do. I don't think there would've been any doubt that he would've been named quarterback of the world.
Any time I can just be dad is a good time,
It doesn't surprise me. The guy's got all the tools you could ever hope for. He's very serious about becoming a great player.
It always helps in recruiting to a certain degree. To finish in the top 10 four straight years is exciting, and we think 10 wins is a pretty good benchmark.
Our goal (coming into spring) was not even to try to narrow it down as much as to get everybody as much exposure to what we're doing as possible. I don't think anything has changed in my mind or Mike's mind.
I'm confident he'll do a good job. I think we'll be OK. But losing Sean is definitely a blow for us.
I'm pleased and appreciative of the administration extending the contract. I've been very blessed with a great staff and players during the past five years as well as tremendous support from our university and athletic administration, fans and student body.
He probably could have made it from 60-whatever. It looked like it had ten more yards on it. It was a heck of a kick.
I'm real excited about this class, mainly because of the numbers. We really covered every major position other than the kickers. If these guys unite as a team, behave like they should and work hard like they should, we should be something special three or four years down the road.
